    Going to Mexico and speaking Spanish with others is so much more difficult in my opinion and from my experience because you just freeze. I understood what they said but froze every time it was my turn to talk so this is really cool and you did so much better than me 👌

    I feel you on a personal level, girl! I've been living in a foreign country for eight years now and still have alot of the language to learn. I've never done any classes, just have kind of been picking it up as I go. And I constantly kick myself for messing up or not knowing something when really I gotta high five myself for how far I've come! Keep at it, Maya!

      *Here is good news:*
      Jesus Christ died on a cross to save people from their sin according to the bible(God's word). Then Jesus rose from the dead, 3 days later, thus defeating death. Anyone who believes this will not perish but will have everlasting life.

      @theexplorer7139 6 лет назад +4

      jessica estrada Same here. I'm Mexican American and my parents didn't teach me Spanish, but I've been picking it up over the years (On and off) by reading books, watching TV shows and eaves dropping on native speakers. Lol the struggle is real. I'm going back to Mexico in a few years to perfect my Spanish. Best of luck to you though!

    Maya! I can totally relate! It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who is feeling like this trying to reclaim a part of me that was never taught or enforced, and been looked down on. Im glad that i can connect to you on a personal level rather than just seeing you behind a screen. Seeing that you are pushing on and letting go of all the self doubt in your head is now the out look im planning on taking.

    Maya, I'm so glad you learned you deserve to be in Mexico and enjoy the experience. And don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise! I love watching you grow and learning how to speak Spanish. Its something that I am still learning and sometimes, I get in my head too. But there are things that remind me that its ok. I'm trying and though its hard, I can still work at it. With practice, it all makes it better.
    You can take my words, I always say, "a veces me dejan en las nuves", hahaha. :)

    Maya thank you so much for sharing your experience. I am Cuban and do not speak Spanish (well a little and understand some but not like I want to, and I have visited Cuba!) sometimes I am sad and I feel disconnected from my culture. However there is more to our culture and who we are as a people. So thank you for sharing these moments. They are encouraging and help me embrace who I am. * side note I am practicing my Spanish and will continue to do so. xoxo

    Maya, you're such an inspiration for so many. I think that you trying to learn Spanish and speaking it so well in such a short time is just amazing. I don't think there's a reason for you to feel not worthy, you are as Mexican as if you had been born and raised here, I hope you enjoyed your trip and I surely hope you come back, too. 😘😘😘😄😄😄 Visit Michoacán next time ☺

  • @MykaAnnProductions
    @MykaAnnProductions 6 лет назад

    Maya you're my favorite and you're so funny and so fucking relatable!! I've been studying Spanish since I was 6 but I could never have a conversation with anyone until I forced to when I studied abroad in Spain. My skills were a lot farther behind than the other students and I was constantly in my head just like you were with abuela and it can be so frustrating, but you're right in that it's all your head. Once you get over that (way easier said than done) it gets so much easier to approach people and be okay with the mistakes that you make. Native speakers are actually so patient and willing to listen to you struggle until you get out what you want to say. Thank you for making these

  • @heatherrose8465
    @heatherrose8465 4 года назад

    That’s the thing you try so hard and convince yourself you are failing, but really that thought process is what holds you back! I can’t tell you how many people I have been talking to in Spanish and they see me start to struggle and they switch to English and I’m like 😅😅😅. I know they do it just to be accommodating, but it’s such a shot to the cojones! I’ve recently started letting them speak in English and I continue on in Spanish 🤓 Cheers to you and all of us- gotta keep on keepin on!

I understand mostly everything but I'm just not comfortable speaking it in front of people because I'm afraid of my words getting twisted ,when deep down i know what to say and how to say it. It's been a challenge for me and I'm trying so hard to overcome it.

    I was born in Mexico but lived in the USA since I was one , I asked my mom why she always had me in ESL classes as a child if I already knew English when I started school, and she told me she wanted me to practice Spanish as well and I thank her for that , I would know Spanish regardless because that's what we speak at home but thanks to my mom I'm 100 percent fluent and can read and write it .. also every job I've had has paid me more simply for being bilingual. Some of my cousins sound all choppy when they speak Spanish and I'm just glad I can do both easily .
